After Hours

Clara Smith: Freight Train Blues, Cold Weather Papa, The Basement Blues, The Clearing House Blues. Clarence Williams: Gravier St. Blues. Clara Smith: War Horse Mama (Pig Meat Sweetie), 31st St. Blues. Clarence Williams: My Own Blues. C. Williams Blue Five (Armstrong and Bechet): Texas Moaner Blues. C. Williams: Weary Blues, C. Williams Blue Five (Thomas Morris with Bechet): House Rent Blues. Atlantic Dance Orchestra: Lime House Blues, Henderson (Billy Fowler bass sax): Doo Doodle Oom, C. Williams: Mixing the Blues.

Clarence Williams composed Texas Moaner Blues with Fay Barnes, and Charlie Irvis is on trombone. Don Redman is on Clearing House Blues, War Horse Mama and Cold Weather Papa. Charlie Dixon is on banjo and Don Redman plays the goofus on Freight Train Blues. Fletcher Henderson played on several tunes including Freight Train Blues, War Horse Mama and Cold Weather Papa, on which he also plays the whistle. Smith’s vocal with Ernest Elliott and Charles Mattson in WC Handy’s Basement Blues is among the higher points of 1924.

Comparable high points were reached by Clarence Williams on his solo piano and with the Blue Five and also by Henderson’s Orchestra who are included here. Henderson played a big role in these recordings of Clara and gave her a semblance of the special production support Bessie Smith received in 1924. Clara was at home anywhere but particularly here in Henderson’s special world of Redman, goofus and whistle and she makes brrrr noises of her own on Cold Weather Papa. Hard to find a more perfect star singer for Henderson’s blues formula. And vice versa.

Off And Gone

Henderson: Somebody Stole My Gal. Nick Lucas: My Best Girl. Gene Rodemich: Shanghai Shuffle. Oriole Terrace Orch.: Off and Gone. Bennie Krueger: Charley My Boy (Voc. Billy Jones). James Blythe: Armour Avenue Struggle. Marion Harris: Jealous. Armstrong (Henderson Orch.): Everybody Loves My Baby. Loren McMurray: Haunting Blues, Charlie Creath: Pleasure Mad. Harris: I Can’t Get The One I Want (lyrics by Billy Rose). Arcadia Peacock Orch. (Jules Schneider ts, Chick Harvey voc.): Where's My Sweetie Hiding. Rosa Henderson (with Fletcher Henderson): Papa Will be Gone. Harris: Tain't Nuthin' Else. The Texas Blues Destroyers (Bubber Miley, Alvin Ray): Lennox Avenue Shuffle.

The Harris Southern roots place her on the family tree. Her interpretation as she introduced these legacy tunes is a valid starting point as with Tatum who on Tea for Two takes Harris’s dreamy sentimental approach, lcoincidence. Another Harris tune Haunting Blues from Loren McMurray is from 1922 his last year. James Blythe played boogie before it took over. Here also is the original Shanghai Shuffle by its composer, borrowing from Limehouse Blues which swept the US in 1924 with Gertrude Lawrence, who contrasts with Harris who started in the US and then went to England. The OTO provide our title, led by Ted Fiorito.
